Curriculum Studies: Advances and Challenges in the Internationalization Process

Abstract

At the present moment in the XXI century, the curriculum field is experiencing a process of internationalization, of which the first signs are being felt ( Pinar, 2004, 2006b ). Transnational spaces were created, where academics from different places seek to participate in the refitting and decentralizing of their own knowledge traditions, and also to negotiate a reciprocal trust indispensable for collective work. The internationalization of a field, that is so deeply affected by distinct national cultures, has demanded new languages and new audiences which can create new narratives.
